Leftover Love

You give me the leftovers And think it must be a treat You give HER the tempting feast Which is followed by a sweet The leftovers of your time Leftover energy too I get your love leftovers Dear, leftovers will not do! You think that I’m satisfied With the things you have to give Well I’m no fool, my dear boy This is not the way to live! Keep giving me leftovers Here's what I might have to do I’ll give the feast of my love To someone other than YOU!
